Geographic Regions Dairy Products State totals are not published when fewer than 3 firms have reported or one firm comprises more than 60 percent of the State total. If we are not able to publish a region for confidentiality reasons, it will be combined with other regions when possible. For example, if North Atlantic can not be published, then it will be combined with South Atlantic to publish Atlantic. The West North Central and East North Central will be combined, if necessary, to form North Central. In the event that neither could be published, they may be combined with South Central to publish Central. Some tables will have only limited regions shown, therefore the regions may not add to the United States total.

In 32 States, the State Departments of Agriculture assist in collection of data, which eliminates duplicate reporting and reduces respondent burden. Data are collected by mail, personal and telephone interviews following the close of each month. There were 1,153 manufacturers that made one or more products in 2002. Each month, reports are generally received from all dairy plants in States with small numbers of plants. In States with large numbers of plants, survey procedures are designed to obtain monthly reports from all large plants and from a sample of small plants. Monthly estimates are based upon returns from about 70 percent of the plants which account for 70 to 90 percent of the total production of major dairy products. Revision Policy: Monthly estimates are subject to revision the month following the preliminary estimates. Annual estimates are published in the "Dairy Products" report published each April which includes any revisions made to current and previous year. An attempt is made to get information from all plants for preparing these estimates. The next "Dairy Products" report will be released at 3 p.m. ET on January 5, 2004.
